Do you suffer from bad breath? If so, we are here to help! Bad breath is a very common dental health problem, but it can be easily rectified. Here are 5 ways you can reduce bad breath in Liverpool:
- Brush up! Brushing your teeth is the best weapon against bad breath, as it removes harmful bacteria from your mouth. Spend at least 2 minutes every morning and evening cleaning your teeth with fluoride toothpaste.
- Stop smoking: smoking is one of the most significant causes of bad breath. If you’d like to try and quit smoking, we have an expert team on hand to offer advice and provide support and encouragement.
- Avoid food triggers: many people find that they develop bad breath after eating certain foods. If this sounds familiar, it’s a good idea to keep a food diary so that you can pinpoint which foods are giving you grief. You can then avoid these triggers and enjoy peace of mind.
- Chew sugar-free gum: chewing sugar-free gum stimulates saliva production, which helps to neutralise acids in your mouth, but it also helps to get rid of odours and freshen your breath. It’s a good idea to carry gum with you if you tend to get bad breath after eating or drinking.
- See your dentist: if you have bad breath on a persistent basis or you’re worried that the situation is getting worse, see your dentist. Bad breath can be a sign of underlying dental health issues and we can offer treatments to banish bad breath for good.
